Watch out, Mecca: Kmart and Big W roll out 'store-within-a-store' beauty hubs - Nine.com.au

New Beauty Zones Launch at Kmart and Big W

Kmart and Big W are launching Mecca-style beauty zones within their stores. Nine.com.au reported the move on Friday. The dedicated hubs offer affordable indulgences to shoppers. Both retailers are responding to demand for low-cost beauty treats. The zones are already open in selected stores.

Reuters reported that Saudi Arabia intercepted Houthi missiles and drones. The Houthi group denied targeting Mecca. Meanwhile, demolition started at an old power plant in Mecca city. Advocates are waiting for soil test results before any further work proceeds.

“Kmart and Big W are launching Mecca-style beauty zones within their stores,” — Yusuf Calloway, policy watcher at Walton Bridge Staffing, added during the briefing.
